TESTIMONIALS

Hey Cody, just wanted to let you know I got the rifle
and tried it out and it is AMAZING!! Guys at the gun store were
impressed as well. It was a real pleasure to shoot and everything from
the trigger to working the action was flawless. And most amazing, it
worked without a hiccup. I've had a pistol worked up by Bob Munden
before and it was slick, but didn't function without some hiccups. You
did a wonderful job and I would recommend you to anyone. Jacob
Davidson. - Kentucky

Cody, the rifle arrived and I got to tell you just how
impressed I am. I've been shooting with an 1866 from Uberti
for a few years now and as an engineer, I thought I had it
slicked up just right. However, after taking the 1873 you
just sold me to the range, I can say without a doubt that
you perform some pretty strong magic on these historic
rifles. The trigger is a crisp 3 lbs pull with
virtually no creep whatsoever. The short-stroke kit and
light-weight follower make this rifle run as smooth as any
lever action rifle I've ever come across. I spend a few
hours this afternoon feeding my new 1873 with a variety of
different loads from light-weight 96 grain .38 Special's to
standard 158 grain .357 Magnum's without a single misfeed or
jam. Factory loads from Black Hills, Ten-X, and Fiocchi ran
perfectly as did all of the reloads I put through it.
You have my sincere thanks and an open invitation to come
visit Texas when you get tired of the cold and snow.

I just wanted to take a minute to let you know how much we love the
‘73 that you fixed up for my sons (Texas Ranger Trent Kilkenny and
Marshal Matt Dillon). We picked it up and went straight to the
Defend Old Fort Parker Shoot before we ever put the first piece of
lead down the barrel. Thanks for going the extra mile to get the
rifle tuned and to us so we could make this shoot. The rifle worked
like magic. The action is slick as glass and the ‘73 worked
flawlessly. It is a beautiful and awesome rifle!! Marshal Matt
Dillon took first place in Young Guns and Texas Ranger Trent
Kilkenny took fourth place in Cowboy against some heavy shooters
thanks to the ‘73. This ‘73 will be the first of many to come. At
least two more because it is hard to get it from the one that just
shot it.
Thanks to a Great Gunsmith and Cowboy “Texas Ranger Chick Bowdrie” -

Hello Cody,
Just wanted to say "Thank You" for working on my rifle and adding the
tang sight. The action on the rifle is awesome, and I really like the
way it feels with the stock cut down. You absolutely live up to all the
testimonials and praise that I have heard about your work, and your
customer service.
I received it on Friday, and I am putting a check in the mail to you
Monday morning.
Thanks again for everything, James Hill aka Slingshot

I just wanted to drop a line thanking you for an
excellent product. I am loving my 1873 Trapper. It is truly a beautiful
piece of work. 2 days after I picked it up I went straight into our annual
match. Besides working flawlessly for the entire match it was also much
admired by other cowboys and cowgirls. Thanks again for a job extremely well
done. It was well worth the wait. Winchester Jack SASS # 70195

If anyone is looking for an 1873
Winchester clone for speed and accuracy, look no further.
You have found the best in the business. A good friend of
mine told me about the Cody-Matic and how people rave about
them. I was a little skeptical at first until I received my
rifle from Cody and was amazed by its' craftsmanship.
Plus, she is a beaut' to boot.

I was even more amazed
when I finally got a chance to fire it. The last lever gun I
owned, it jammed the first time and every time after that.
But not the Cody-Matic. It fires smooth and clean with no
problems at all. I am very satisfied with the rifle and
would highly recommended anyone seriously into cowboy
shooting to get one of Cody's guns!!! Thanks Cody, your are
a true master of you craft.

Everyone who has handled my '73 Trapper
"Cody-Matic" 'LOVES' it. The
'short-stroke' action is so smooth, and
the rifle just seems like an extension
of your arm when aiming and firing. At
one point I, (foolishly), loaned it to
my Spouse, (Darlin Dave), while his was
at 'The Gunsmith's' and had to pry
it out of his hands, (unloaded, of
course), when his was ready. There were
a few tears shed by 'all parties
involved'....my tears, because I finally
had my 'baby' back and DD because he had
'bonded' too deeply with my '73!

Howdy Cody,
Well I can say is WOW you have worked on three pair
of Colts and numerous rifles and all of them have
been nothing short of great, smooth as butter
and worked flawlessly, again my hat is off too you,
keep up the great work.
Thanks, Steve Patton AKA Kiowa Kid - Colorado

OH MY GAWD! You blew me out of the water with the
high quality work my shotgun and my and Annie's
rifles, but I have NEVER felt anything as smooth as
these pistols I just got back from you today. They
are incredible! Thank you for getting them back to
me so fast; I can't wait to shoot them in the first
match of the year on Sunday at Roanoke Rifle and
Revolver. Again, thank you so much. They are
smokin'!

Bill Barnette, AKA Devil Bill

I just wanted to drop you a
note to say thank you ever so much for the most
outstanding rifle I have ever had the pleasure to
shoot!!! Your workmanship is second to none and I
have shot allot of rifles in my day. I have a yellow
boy that should be coming in soon that I would like
to send you for an action job if possible. Thank
You again sir and Happy Thanksgiving to you and
your family. Tony Montana

Cody, just a quick note to say thanks for a great
rifle and a new adventure in playing the game . I
have been shooting for 3 seasons so far and was
rather happy how I advanced . This year I just
wasn't making any progress if anything it seemed the
harder I tried to go faster with my 92 the worse
things went wrong many shooters told me it was time
to start looking for a 73, so I did, and I'm sure
you know what I found, there where pioneers and the
folks with the Indians then link kits and links with
levers not to mention a host of different
generations .

So I went back and started talking to the shooters
it wasn't long before I was up to speed on what to
look for, the questions in the debate always seemed
to be
same . How did the stroke compare to a Cody - Matic, Was it as Smooth as a Cody - Matic, Was it as
Reliable as a Cody - Matic . It became very clear
that the rifles you build were the Benchmark for
comparison .

Now I've been around high end hobbies long enough to
know that when a certain product sets itself apart
from the others and actually becomes the benchmark
you simply buy the benchmark and never look back .

That’s what I did, the gun is a pleasure to shoot,
never missed a beat and has advanced me in the game
further than I had thought the simple addition of a
new gun could . As far as comparison goes, the last
match I shot with it upon returning to the unloading
table a couple a guys where there cycling my rifle
and guess what they wanted to know, who did the
action work .

Thanks a ton Cody.

Hey pard, just wanted to take a little time and
tell ya how much I really like my new 73 you did up
for me. As you know I've been shootin a C&I short
link gun for a couple of years, several told me I'd
better stay with one of them instead of going to a
Cody-Matic, well here's what I got ta say about that
DIDDLYSQUAT. I've never shot a rifle as smoooooooth
as a Cody-Matic. The brass block in that Taylors
rifle will sit right there and cluck like a steady
old hen on a nest! I'm tellin ya boy ye got a
gift when it comes ta workin on gunz. The second
match I shot the rifle in was the Mason Dixon
Stampede and well lets just say it held up its end.
I don't care how fast everybody says their so & so
kit is, nor do I care how much the stroke measures.
The rifle I got from you is a hand tuned weapon that
works flawless. Every time I've called on it, it has
been there for me, and I thank ya a lot. You are a
pard ta ride to tha river with. Hope ta see you
soon.

I first met Cody Conagher in April 2001 when my Dad (Pa
Antrim) and I traveled from AUSTRALIA to experience our
first End Of Trail. In spite of a troublesome Marlin
(which had the bad habit of ejecting the odd live round
- 3 at EOT 2001), I managed to finish 6th Overall. The
point of mentioning this is that Cody suggested I have a
look at his rifle, a 73 Cody-Matic. From the moment I
handled the rifle I knew I had to have one!

Given the fact that I live in Australia, the logistics
of getting an action job done on a rifle that I didn't
even own yet would prove to be a challenge. Cody assured
me that he and his wonderful wife "Lena Ockley" would do
whatever they could to help me to achieve my goal of
owning a Cody-Matic.

Once we were back home in Australia, several attempts
were made by my Dad, Cody and Lena to purchase a rifle
in the States, do the action job and have it sent to me.
However, due to various firearms restrictions in both
Australia and the USA it soon became obvious that this
was not going to work. Finally, we all worked out a
solution. Cody would purchase a rifle in the States,
strip the internal parts from it and carry out the
modifications on those parts and send them to me. I
would purchase the same model 73 in Australia and send
the same parts back to Cody to replace those that he
would work on for my rifle. ALTHOUGH FINE IN PRINCIPAL,
YOU CAN IMAGINE THAT FOR CODY NOT TO HAVE THE
ACTUAL RIFLE TO WORK ON AND FIT THE PARTS TO MAY PROVE
DIFFICULT!
The parts arrived together with a home video made by
Cody and Lena showing instructions on how to fit the
parts and make certain adjustments to make it all
work. TO MINE AND MY DAD'S AMAZEMENT, THE PARTS "JUST
FELL INTO PLACE", THE ADJUSTMENTS WERE MADE AND THE
RIFLE WORKED PERFECTLY. In fact, I have handled many
73's in Australia and in America and I reckon mine is
the slickest of them all. The rifle is totally reliable
and has never let me down, it is a dream to shoot -SUCH
IS THE SKILL AND QUALITY OF WORKMANSHIP OF CODY
CONAGHER.

"Madd

Dear Cody, my son and I both use
your action jobs. My son, Badlands Drifter, first started with an 1866
Yellow Boy with a Cody job. Since January 2007, he has changed to your
Taylor's made Cody-Madic1873 special with the 18.5 in. barrel. We
quickly learned that he was actually faster than his 1866 would allow
him to be. Since he started using your 1873 I stand back as a proud
father and watch the show. He’s holding his own with some of the
fastest shooters I've ever seen. Point in fact, 2007 Florida State Last
Stand video. Sometimes he leaves me with my mouth hanging open and tears
in my eyes. Numerous shooters have asked how he is he able to work his
rifle that fast. I simply tell them he has the best gun that the market
can offer and the best gun smith in the country.

Yours Truly,

"Wigley

Dear
Cody, I’m the guy who bought your rifle at Winter Range. I just
wanted to tell you it’s far and away the best rifle I ever owned.
Not only is it pretty, it’s fast, accurate, and completely
reliable. I’m kicking ass with the thing at my local matches. You
had said that all I had to do was to get part of the bead on the
target and it was a hit. Boy, is that ever true! I’m really glad I
happened to stop by the tent that day. I also appreciate the fact
that you sold me your personal rifle—well, I guess your wife did.
You are one hell of a gunsmith. "Big Dave" aka David Harrison - Colorado

I met Cody a few years ago and have always heard good things
about his gun work, but now I know first hand. I got my "Cody-Matic"
trapper in 38 a few weeks ago and fell in love for the second time
in my life. It is an awesome rifle!! Cody went the extra mile and
cut the stock down for me and it fits like a glove. Thanks Cody for
all your work and>en more confident on the range. Cody's
work is like magic, the action is slick and the rifle works like a
charm. I am excited about shooting this season with it and could not
ask for it to be any better.

Thanks so much!!!!

"Kill-em-all Kate", North Carolina - SASS # 45804

I
started shooting a Cody-Matic 73 in 2002; I have gone from
shooting in the middle of the pack to as high as 6th
out of 88. I shoot Classic Cowboy, so in a class that you shoot
duelist and a hammer double and my Cody-Matic Conagher model in
38-40. Which if you have been around this sport for more than a
minute you know that your only chance to catch a 97 shotgun, two
handed pistol shooter is to do it with rifle; That is where the
Cody-Matic comes in, there is non smoother or more reliable. This
rifle will keep you in the hunt if you are really into the
competition or if you just like shooting the best tuned the gun
on the market you need look no further.

I
shoot the Conagher model that is a 24” pistol grip deluxe cut to
22” with a black powder crown; I like the extra 2” over the
Border deluxe to keep the front sight bounce down when I get a
little excited.

I
do not own a gun that has not been tuned or made exactly to my
liking, by Cody. That is every shotgun, pistol and the six
Cody-Matic's I have owned. I sold two due to a caliber change for
my wife and me, and by the way, Colts are not the only gun that
hold there value or appreciate. WHY?
Aside from being the SMOOTHEST most Reliable rifle in the sport,
if Cody tuned it he will fix it. If you wish to see what
UNCONDITIONAL guarantee looks like buy a Cody-Matic
and in the
unlikely event something goes wrong, you will find out how Cody
stands behind his work. That is even if YOU find a way to wear
it out or break it, he will fix it

The only generation you need to worry about is how many
generations of your family you will pass your rifle on to. I
have noticed Grand Ma is harder to get the rifle away from than
Grand Pa. Boy,
am I looking forward to the new Taylor’s “Conagher Smoke Wagon”
pistols!

"Bull Shoals", PA. - SASS Life 25400

I have two stock Ruger Vaqueros in 45 calibers and have trouble
cocking the hammers and adjusting to the recoil due to recent
shoulder and hand surgery. Being a Cowboy Action shooter for more
than 8 years, I was doubting if I would ever be able to compete
again at our local SASS club. I heard about Cody from a shooter at
our club and decided to invest and chance that the two 45s would
accommodate my physical disability. WOW!, I was surprised when I
got them back no later than 1 week after sending them to Cody. They
are smooth as silk with a hammer cocking sound like a perfectly
tuned watch. The hammers are a joy to operate and the action is
flawless and now with a lighter 185 grain bullet, I’m back on the
“cowboy trail”. Thanks Cody for your fine gun smithing.
"Chigger" Culloden, West Virginia - SASS 32776Cody, I just wanted to take a minute
to let you know how much I love the action job on the 73 that I won
at the VA State Championship. I finally had the pleasure to shoot
it and I am AMAZED. Only thing about it though....it kinda reminds
me of a saying that my pop used to say, related to me using this
rifle: "Kinda like putting a $50 saddle on a $5 horse!" Oh well,
guess that gives me an excuse to try to get better, huh. I also
want to thank you for supporting the raffle by throwing in the
action job. Our game will continue to grow and become better and
better as long as we can keep Cowboys like you around!

Thank you again,

Cody is not only a friend, but one of
the best gunsmiths our sport has to offer. I consider him the subject
matter expert when it comes to the 73. He has been involved from the
start of the short stroke mods. He understands what can be done with out
creating problems for the shooter. I shoot one of Cody's guns. Its
extremely smooth and I've never had a problem with it. Cody is the kind of man that stands behind his word and his work. If
you want to see how his work feels. Stop me next time you see me.

"Handlebar Doc" - Texas

Cody, your original Cody-Matic
is the best rifle I have. And I have about five
others now. I have had great success with your action work and when I let
my friends test it out they don't want to give it back to me.

Tim Thibert aka "Lawbreaker"
-
Kent, WA

As a Cowboy Action Shooter, I choose Cody Conagher’s action work on
my lever rifles.

I favor the smooth feel of the lever travel of
the Cody-Matic versus harder working mechanics of some of the other,
shorter stroke versions on the market. I especially like the
dedicated features on the Billy Boots Model such a 24” barrel cut to
19” with a special
“black powder” crown, trigger stop, ivory front bead, flattened
rear sight, and more. As a retailer, the majority of our new 73/66’s
go from our Uberti importer, Cimarron Firearms, to Cody before
delivery to our business. I’m convinced that it is just good
business to offer the buyer an out-the-door ready, competition rifle
in the “Cody-Matic package”. And, the rifles pretty well sell
themselves when offered in this manner. Generally, a few strokes of
the lever to feel that smooth action and the customer is hooked.Bill Buckman, aka "Billy Boots", Buckman’s Inc. - Texas.

Cody,
I should have sent this weeks ago. The '73 I got from you
is excellent and beautiful. I can't say I'm used to it yet but, it
is smooth
as silk.
Thanks again, TH Hubler aka "M'bogo" - Jeffersonville, IN

Cody, thanks for talking me into using a '73. The action you made is smooth and
functions flawlessly, something I really need! Along with the '73
and my, glass smooth, Codyized Colts, I am in Cowboy heaven.
Thanks to your super slick 73's, I have the NH/VT top 49er, Top
Modern and Top Senior in 2005, 2006 and 2007, 2nd place Senior at
the NE Regional and the Maryland State Top Senior in 2007. I know I
owe much of it to my Cody-Matic!"Chuckaroo" - Ijamsville, MD.

Cody builds the smoothest, most reliable 1873 rifle action job, on
the planet today. Each rifle is built personally by Cody to assure
consistency and quality every time."Diamond Jim Bandy" - Nevada

Hey Cody, Dingo and I both love our 73's
that you ordered and did action jobs on. Milling out the barrel
on mine really did make it almost as light as my Marlin. We
would not trade them for anything. Both sets of my Ruger
Vaquero's, that you did action jobs, on are just as sweet. I am
not sure which pair I like better. Thanks for doing such a great
job on our guns. See you and Lena on the range.

Take care,"Sixgun Sallie" & "Dingo Dave" - Palm City, FL

"I first met Cody 5
years ago at the Maryland State shoot -Thunder Valley Days.
He was running the speed rifle side match. My brand new '73
wouldn't run and kept throwing out rounds. Cody immediately
knew what was wrong and without being asked took the gun
home with him. In addition to all the things he had to do,
he fixed the gun that night and wouldn't take a dime. When
I got it back I couldn't believe how well it ran. In 5
years Cody has literally built 2 dozen rifles and pistols
for my self and my wife. Not only does he do a great job on
'73's but he's tuned my USFA's and my wife's Colts. When he
gets done the guns are completely smooth, perfectly
timed and absolutely reliable. Most of the people we shoot
with are shooting his guns. In fact if Cody hasn't worked
on it we won't shoot it! His turnaround time can't be beat
either.

"English Bev & Flat Iron" - New York, NY

Cody,
I remember the first lever gun I purchased. It was a used
Marlin that you had slicked up and resold. I also remember the
first time I worked this lever. It felt incredibly smooth.
After several matches, I was able to work the lever without
moving my hand, only finger effort was needed. Then while
attending a shoot in Denegal, PA, I ordered one of the first '73
Border Rifles and you customized it for me. ($650 - time flies
doesn't it?) I recall the first time I shot this rifle in a
match. The lever worked with 1 and 1/4 pounds of effort.
Needless to say, it only required one finger to lever the gun
with the hammer down. At times, it actually was too smooth and
I got a little ahead of my brain.

I am not currently involved in the
wonderful sport of Cowboy Action Shooting, but I still use the
guns once in a while. Every time I show the rifle to one of my
friends, they cannot believe what a competent gunsmith can
accomplish. Are you planning on any gun smithing other than
Cowboy type work?
Just wanted to say Hello and Welcome you to West Virginia. "Imposter" - West by God, Virginia

I met Cody shortly after I joined SASS in 2000. I was there
when he invented the Cody-Matic. I have three. He did my
Colts. He did my OM Vaqueros. Best of all, he did my three
screws. You have to wonder how they set off a primer but
they have not failed me. Glass trigger. Effortless actions.

I have enjoyed some success in cowboy and I sincerely
believe I can attribute some of the success to expertly
prepared guns.

His
unquestionable integrity combined with his skills has
provided me with confidence in all four weapons. I know he
stands behind his work. I know he will do what he says.
There are hundreds of us who will swear to it."Red Cent" - North Carolina (2007
World Champion Silver Senior!)

My association with Don Jones
a.k.a. Cody Conagher began shortly after I began shooting
CAS. Like many others I looked for the cheapest and easiest
ways to get my guns tuned and like many others I made lots
of mistakes. The one decision I made that definitely was
not a mistake was to purchase a set of used Ruger Vaqueros
from Cody. He tuned them and set them up with ½ cock
hammers. These pistols were and still are the slickest
Ruger's I have ever shot and the ½ cock feature eliminated
the need to cycle around the cylinder when I slipped the
hammer (no more losing index). These pistols will lock up
just by thumbing the hammer to ½ cock they are so smooth,
and yet have enough hammer force to set off primers from
about the ½ cock position. All this makes for guns that can
be run much faster than I can run them.

Then, just about the time I
thought I was getting pretty fast with my Marlin rifle, a
new horse showed up in the corral. Several people started
shooting the 1866 & 1873 rifles, including Cody Conagher,
Bad Bob Brewski, and Lone Dude.

I
couldn’t believe how slick these rifles were and they
weren’t nearly as finicky about ammo as the Marlins were. I
put off shelling out the money for one of these rifles for
several years. Then I began to hear about a modification
that Cody and Lone Dude were working on that took the slop
out of the actions and made the stroke more in line with the
Marlins. Still I held off, my Marlin was very slick and
hardly ever presented any problems (it was a 45Colt). Then
wouldn’t you know it, my brother Imposter got one of Cody’s
Cody-Matic rifles. I had good pistols, I
had a slick 97, but I was getting eaten alive when it came
to my rifle. Finally I bit the bullet and purchased an 1873
and sent it to Cody. I haven’t even looked back. Now I had
the complete setup. All my guns were as good as I could get
them. The only thing limiting my status in CAS was me and
my lack of practice. Cody’s workmanship has been a major
factor in my success as a Cowboy Action Shooter. Just
knowing my guns are as good as they can get and are totally
reliable gives me the confidence to shoot to the best of my
ability.

I was looking for
someone to replace a braised-on, hooded front sight of a
Winchester '94 with a dove tail front sight. I had spoken to
several who do this type of work and had gotten various
replies as to its feasibility. Totally confused, I contacted
Smith N Jones of "Shoot" Magazine, as I have done
in
the past when something like this occurs. I trust his
judgment and he has never led me astray. He suggested I
contact Cody. I did and we discussed the project and I
immediately trusted him. Cody even told me he would not do
the work if certain tolerances weren't able to be met. I Had
been considering an action/short stroke job on a '73
as well and we discussed this also. I liked what he said and
off went the '73. If you have heard the expression "As good
as it gets", Cody's work is the next level up. Everything
was "As advertised" and more, even the part about "Writing
down your serial number to assure you that you got back the
same gun you sent Cody!" I did not do this, and wish I
had, because the action and stroke are unbelievable. His
price and turn around time were advertised as two weeks.
That is what it was, to the day! I put 11 snap caps in this
'73 and the first one will sill still be rolling on the
ground when the 11th one is still in the air.........Simply
amazing, the action is effortless. At the completion of the
note, I will be boxing up a '66 to send to Cody for the same
work. Thanks Cody!"VIC SEELMAN" SASS # 4914

I shoot a Taylor's 1873
Trapper. Cody did the action work on it, I have found it
to be very easy to shoot. The action is very, very
smooth. It has also has been very reliable. I have a lot
of confidence with the rifle and I am very happy with
the rifle and the work that was done on it.

"I got my rifle from you at Winter Range, 2003. After
thousands of rounds, I haven't had any problems at all
with it. Thanks for building a great rifle. "Here
is a picture of my Cody-Matic rifle in action!

"Race Gunner", SASS # 55175 - Arizona

"Cody Conagher is an excellent gunsmith when it
comes to 1873 Winchester rifles. His work is of the
highest quality, and he is friendly and easy to deal
with. I trust him with my own rifle, and recommend him
completely to all shooters.""Holly Terror" - Durango, CO

"Try any rifle with the best possible action work you
can find, heck try every one you can get your hands on.
Then, test fire a Cody-Matic ’73, and the owner will have
to pry the rifle out of your hands to get it back. I
started shooting a ’73 Cody-Matic Carbine in the summer
of 2003 and the only reason I’m not still using that
rifle is that I went to a ’73 Cody-Matic Border Rife.
Not only does Cody Conagher produce the smoothest action
job available, but he also runs his business the Cowboy
Way. He turns out the best product and stands behind
them 100%. Since adding a Cody-Matic ’73 to my main match
guns I’ve added a few titles to my Cowboy Action
accomplishments. Needless to say, the only rifle
substitution for me is another Cody-Matic ’73."

"I purchased the
trapper 73 with your action at EOT. I live in
Canada so it took awhile to get the paperwork
squared away. I picked it up at the gun Centre
in Buffalo NY on August 8 and brought it over
the border. The next day I left for Guns of
August. Too late for ATF approval.

Didn't have a
posse list for GOA or I would have looked you
up.

Finally got to
shoot this gun and it is everything I hoped it
would be. Klondike told me your action is tops
and he does not lie.
My other 73's have replacement springs and short
stroke kits but are generations behind the
trapper.
My problem now is how to get my two other 73's
to you!"

I LOVE MY
CODY-MATIC!! I believe that my Cody-Matic has
helped me become a more successful shooter.
Several of my friends have tried it and
since ordered one themselves. I can’t brag
on it enough. I’m afraid it’s going to get
worn out with everybody wanting to take a
turn shooting it!! I was shooting a Marlin
before I bought my Cody-Matic – no comparison
– smooth as silk, reliable, a real winner!!
Cody is a great guy to work with. Thanks
again!!
